Very helpful and very organized

Really was helpful in giving me insights into college admission process. Would highly recommend having a conversation with them.

Had an intro call with Coach Victor who was super insightful and very knowledgeable when we asked our questions- of which we had many! Left feeling a lot better about how we are doing and feel like his team can be great partners

We are immensely grateful for the guidance and dedication provided by Coach Kristen. She has proven to be an indispensable asset, consistently supporting my family and me with every concern we have brought forward. ​Coach Kristen embodies efficiency, professionalism, and a genuine problem-solving spirit, all backed by a remarkable wealth of knowledge. Her approach is always warm, personable, and deeply human, and everyone in my family is thankful for her impact. While Kristen is our primary point of contact, we must also commend the strength of the entire EgelloC team. We’ve had access to, and benefited from, many other coaches, and they all uphold the same fantastic standard of excellence. We would like to offer a special acknowledgment to Coach Tony Le, who is also a trusted favorite of ours. Words truly fall short in conveying the depth of our appreciation. We wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend EgelloC.

The call was very enriching. The attention coach Tony gave make the call fluent.

Coach Tony laid out the three pillars of the college admission process and an action plan in a way that was easy to understand. I learned a lot in a short amount of time and feel better equipped than I felt before the call.

Great follow through and support from Coach Tony’s staff and Team! They are here for you, and they delivered what they promise you to do. Many thanks for giving us a great experience.

This program is great. Especially Coach Kristen who helped me out through the journey. She gave me detailed feedback on my essays which helped me improve them. She also helped me to plan out a part of my high school career getting me one step closer to my dreams. Thank you for everything and I would highly recommend this

Ever since I switched to Coach Ariel my imagination and writers block has completely gone away. She is very knowledgeable towards every aspect of the college application process, but also almost like a part time therapist/hype girl. I’m endlessly grateful for everything she has done for me and wouldn’t want my college application experience to go any differently.

If you are considering using the "College Financial Secrets" subset of this company please read this carefully.

We were told by David, who runs this part of their company, that they knew how to navigate the system and would basically do everything for us to help us. What actually happened was much different.

Once they had our check we never heard from him. We would have to reach to to see what we needed to do and it was like pulling teeth to get any feedback or information from him.

Here is what we have deduced. He fills out the FAFSA, and later the school puts together the package that you would have gotten anyway. He claims this is their “expertise” when the reality is you think you are paying for someone who knows something more than that to get you more aid after the FAFSA is sent in and your initial offer.

When you talk to David before you send in the check to them he implies that they know “secrets” about how to get more for financial aid. If he knows any “secrets” he did not share them with us. I consider myself pretty savvy financially, but I do give hats off to him, he was able to con us and make us feel like fools. As parents, we want the best for our kids for this very expensive endeavor of college and this makes us vulnerable.

The last straw was when we asked him about how to proceed with asking for further financial aid to a college our student had gotten into(this is what we thought we were paying for) and he sent us an amateurish form letter that looked like it was written by chatGPT. He literally told us to mail this letter, in the mail. This didn’t sound right so we checked on the school site and they clearly state to not mail letters and to submit through the portal.

We discussed our concerns with David and he told my wife "well I pretty much did all the work already". All he did was fill out the FAFSA. That's it. If you think that $3500 is a good price to fill out the FAFSA then go with this company. We asked for a refund and they said they would give us back $1000, which we never received.

Our only recourse at this point is to warn others so they don’t get taken advantage of too.

You’ve been warned.

I was honestly really lost with the whole college application process, egelloc has really helped me navigate this journey by having really good one on one coach interactions.

My favorite part of today’s event was getting time to work on and focus on UC PIQs! I have been having a hard time sitting down and finding time to write my PIQs and this event was a great way to make progress on my PIQs.

The coaches gave great advice on writing my college essays. Coach Ariel was very helpful in guiding me to write more personal essays.

The help I got from my individual coach was very helpful for my PIQs and I feel more confident moving forward with them

The coaches did a good job of giving helpful feedback. I learned how to work through my UC and common app applications.

So grateful to all the coaches who’s helped me throughout the process of applications. A special shoutout to Coach Dollie! She helped me at the accelerator and her constructive feedback was exactly what I needed. I was able to refine my essays tremendously, and feel more confident about them :)
